Robust moving horizon control of nonlinear systems

In this paper, a moving horizon control algorithm, which can be applied for a wide class of nonlinear systems with control and state constraints, is considered. In a neighborhood of the origin, a linear feedback controller is applied. Outside this neighborhood, a moving horizon control law is applied. The time taken to solve an optimal control problem is considered in the algorithm so that the proposed control law can be applied as an on-line controller.
